===============================================================
Overview
Power-aware computing is becoming one of the top research priorities for a large variety of systems, including large-scale high performance computers and corporate data centers. We expect that more efforts will be invested in the power-aware computing,  as a consequence of the continuous pushing towards higher performance and more compact system. Power-aware research requires both software and architecture innovation to improve power-efficiency while maintaining performance-oriented design. This workshop provides a forum to discuss the novel ideas about building power-aware software systems and architectures. It will present researchers the opportunity to develop new perspective on power-aware hot topics.

Areas of interest include but are not limited to the following topics:
	Power-aware runtime systems
	Power and performance modeling and evaluation
	Tools for power profiling, accounting and measurement 
	System-level cross-layer coordination
	Hardware/software co-design to improve power efficiency
	Emerging power efficient storage device such as Solid-State Devices (SSD) and Storage Class Memories (SCM)
	Power-aware programming scheme
	Power-aware resource management strategies
	Novel architecting that assists in power management
	Thermal control and reduction
